Tokenized Products on Algorand: Understanding the New Partnership

Italy's Enel Group, Europe’s largest electricity producer, has announced a new partnership with crypto asset provider Conio. Together, they have launched a project called EBITTS, which uses the Algorand blockchain to tokenize renewable energy assets. 

This initiative allows ordinary Italian residents to buy into solar and wind energy—without installing a single panel on their roofs. The move is being described as a groundbreaking model not only for Italy but potentially for the rest of the world.

What Is the EBITTS Project?

The project, called EBITTS, was developed through Enel’s innovation program and is currently focused on renewable energy assets located in Italy. 

It aims to bring access to solar and wind power to people who may live in apartments or homes where installing personal solar panels is not an option. With more than 85 million families across Europe facing such limitations, the solution is timely and relevant.

By purchasing a "token box" through EBITTS, users effectively own a fractional share of solar and wind power installations managed by Enel. 

The electricity generated by these plants is then credited to the user’s electricity bill in proportion to the tokens they hold. 

This offers a practical and measurable way to take part in the green transition—without needing space on your roof or making major upfront investments.

How Algorand and Conio Fit In

The technical backbone of this project is built on Algorand, a blockchain platform known for its speed, scalability, and focus on sustainability. 

The use of Algorand ensures that transactions are secure and energy-efficient, a natural fit for a project promoting renewable energy.

Conio, a well-established crypto asset service provider in Italy, partnered with Enel to implement the blockchain side of the project. Conio’s role includes managing the tokenization process and integrating it with Enel’s services. 

As a result, customers can track energy production and their corresponding benefits directly through a mobile app developed for the initiative.

This setup makes it easy for consumers to monitor their green energy contributions in real time, adding transparency and accountability to the experience.
